Kinda ties in with Morris' thread but the captures aren't nearly as well done. It was early morning and hitting 100 already, the GBH was also making a strange noise I never heard before, a lot of throat movement....Mike

Thank you birdied!
Thanks kmunroe!
marcy45, actually it was a park and that has happened there a time or two, but I have no knowledge of that personally!............
bluegecko it was a Canon 600mm f4.0 old out of date version...........Mike

Great captures of interesting behavior Mike - thanks for sharing. It's hitting the 90's here in Montana - while I was taking pics of bluebirds bringing back insects for their young in midday heat today, I noticed they too are stressed with the heat.
best, Steve
